I am excited to present the latest work from my PhD
@ArthurM_Lab @CRCordeliers published in @NatureMicrobiol thanks to the help of my brilliant co-author @canopele1. Here are the main findings: 1/7
OUT NOW:
New study by @HVoedts @canopele1 and Michel Arthur digging into the mechanisms of (p)ppGpp-dependent beta-lactam resistance in E. coli 🦠💊

You thought all OMPs were trimeric? 🧐 Not in our predator B. bacteriovorus! 🦠
Excited to have contributed to this great collab with the Lovering lab on this intriguing protein. @lalouxlab.bsky.social

Out Now! Cyclic-di-AMP modulates cellular turgor in response to defects in bacterial cell wall synthesis https://t.co/iGqwuAabzi #CyclicDiAMP#BacterialCellWall#Microbiology
Beta-lactams covalently bind to Penicillin Binding Proteins and have been the mainstay of antimicrobial chemotherapy for decades.
In this new paper with colleagues @Bicycle_tx we show a new way to hit old targets: https://t.co/k5H1jlo2qc
New preprint 🚨: with @Mariusz78897208 we found that the Bacteroidetes beta-barrel assembly machinery is quite different to E. coli. https://t.co/jXTf8Pzvha #cryoEM
Our lab is recruiting postdocs with strong expertise in molecular microbiology and/or phage biology to work on different antibiotics-related projects (more info https://t.co/zkDrD2h3Aw). Please get in touch if interested (with CV and references)!
In #JBacteriology, researchers broadly discuss lipoprotein biosynthesis and trafficking, and ponder why the newest outer membrane (OM) assembly system (lipoprotein trafficking) has become so key to building the Proteobacterial OM. Read the review: https://t.co/X7NCENRqGw
Happy to share our first preprint !! Identification of receptor-binding domains of Bacteroidales antibacterial pore-forming toxins https://t.co/PeMhKjSlF0
We are very excited to announce our latest work on how MRSA conquers antibiotics. We show that high-level resistance to methicillin requires S. aureus to utilise an alternative mode of cell division to ensure its survival! @Sheffield_AFM@Olulana4

Watch how BAM and SurA fold proteins!
Our cryoEM structures brought to life in this awesome animation by @phospho! Read about it in our paper published last month https://t.co/TcZ9vS0bmc
@RadfordLab@naranson
Henri Voedts @HVoedts from @jf_collet’s lab on stage to present data on the role of the BepA metalloprotease in outer membrane biogenesis. #SecretionDays
Thrilled to share that my PhD work is now on @biorxivpreprint! We show that bacterial growth in confined spaces generates large forces, to which bacteria adapt in a 3-step process. More info 👉https://t.co/hn43k1c1a6
Excited to present this work at #SFMCongress in 2 weeks!
